Definitions

  • the present invention relates to multi-level power converters more particularly intended to operate in the field of medium voltage.
  • Known medium voltage power converters generally use semiconductor switches in series to allow voltage rise.
  • the major difficulty in putting these semiconductor switches in series is to obtain identical voltages across all these semiconductor switches at each instant. If transient or permanent overloads occur, the destruction of semiconductor switches may occur.
  • NPC neutral point clamped or neutral clamping
  • ANPC type cells 5 voltage levels are currently limited to voltage levels of the order of 6.9 kV, which is not necessarily sufficient.
  • Modular multi-level converters are also known in which each arm to be mounted at the terminals of a DC voltage source comprises two series assemblies, having a common terminal to be connected to an AC power source.
  • Each set comprises several modules, each formed of at least two elementary switches in series and a capacitor connected in parallel with them. A connection is made between the point common to the two elementary switches of a module and one end of the series of elementary switches of a neighboring module. Depending on the on or off state of the elementary switches of a module, the capacitor is short-circuited or in the circuit.
  • the capacitors have the same value and a voltage withstand identical to the ratio between the DC voltage applied to an arm divided by the number of modules of the arm.
  • the value of the capacitors depends on the frequency of the AC output signal in the case of inverter operation or the input signal in the case of rectifier operation. Their voltage resistance is limited, which makes it possible to limit the overvoltages generated by their parasitic inductances. In the case of a variable speed drive, the supply frequency of a motor varies from zero to the nominal value, so that it is not possible to have a capacitor of reasonable value.
  • floating capacitor type cells also known as nested elementary cells.
  • Such a floating capacitor type cell makes it possible to connect a voltage source to a current source by associating any number of elementary cells in series.
  • Each elementary cell comprises two semiconductor switches in series and a capacitor interconnects two neighboring elementary cells in the manner of a scale.
  • This solution has drawbacks related to the presence of the floating capacitor between two elementary cells. The more the number of elementary cells increases, the higher the cost related to capacitors increases and the amount of energy stored in these capacitors is important.
  • the capacitors have the same value, but different voltage withstands, the voltage resistance increases with the rank of the elementary cell, it is worth kE / nk being the rank of the elementary cell, n being the total number of elementary cells and E the voltage applied at the input of the elementary cell of rank one.
  • the value of the capacitors is essentially related to the switching frequency.
  • the size of the capacitors is all the greater as their resistance to tension is high. It is the same for the parasitic inductance they possess. These parasitic inductances are at the origin of switching overvoltages, higher overvoltages will thus appear on the elementary cells of high rank.
  • the object of the present invention is to propose a multi-level converter that can work at voltage levels higher than those of the prior art, without having to resort to transformers, or to multiply the number of semiconductor switches used. serial.
  • Another object of the invention is to propose a multi-level converter which is less expensive and more reliable than the multi-level converters of the prior art, for a given voltage level.

  • the middle node of each floating capacitor type cell of the rank i stage is connected at one end of the capacitive divider bridge of a switching structure at four voltage levels of the rank tier i-1.
  • the converter thus defined makes it possible to reach a voltage level of the order of 13.8 kV with current limited voltage withstand switches (6.5 kV), limiting the number of stages to two and therefore in using only six elementary switches in series.
  • the energy storage devices of the same capacitive divider bridge have the same energy storage capacity and the same voltage withstand.
  • the middle node of at least one floating capacitor type cell of rank stage i is connected to one end of the capacitive divider bridge of the phase stage. rank i-1 via an inductor.
  • the two pairs of elementary switches of the two basic switching cells of the same stage have the same switching function.
  • the elementary switches of the same pair are always in complementary states to a value of dead time.
  • the elementary switches each comprise a controllable power electronic switch associated with a diode connected in antiparallel.
